Is there any form of education you could recommend?

If you can give a bit more info about the property, you can get more focused recommendations.

I highly recommend you start going to meetups.  

Needless to say, as you mentioned, that is no longer the case with current market conditions.I'm biased, but I recommend exploring and considering the option of vacating both units and renovating both sides for PadSplit.

@Jared Goldwasseri would strongly recommend you go to Cincinnati in person. 

If you're open to expanding your search, I also recommend checking Columbus OH - lots of deals that still bring positive cash flow and great appreciation potential.

JordanI’d recommend talking to your lender.

I moved to miami florida to study the economics and help apply it and it was a capital market as well. if you don't live in a capital market like Chicago, New York, Austin Texas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, california or miami florida I'd recommend moving to a market like that too. it will change your life. 

I own property and do interior design for rental and investment properties so I stay up to date from my clients and local events I attend through RE associations and meetups which I recommend.

Can anyone recommend investor-friendly lenders and property managers in this area?
